    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

Hi all,

 

To cut a long story short,

 

ive just found out this morning that my wife and i have been paying PPI for 11 years.

 

We have been paying £58pm for quite a while.

 

The point is the broker we used is a very small independent broker, and i mean, very small, about 5 members of staff.

I have never been interested in taking out PPI in any form so i know i wouldn't have agreed to pay for this.

I actually thought the amount was for buildings and contents insurance.

The thing is, what do i do now?

 

I have cancelled the policy and was told by the lady over the phone to deal with the broker direct,

but i wouldn't know what steps to take.

 

What is the success likely to be as i probably haven't got any of the original paperwork anymore. Any feedback/help would be great.

 

For those who may feel that i would have known that this was PPI given the time we have had it i would like to say that i categorically didn't.

 

We were flooded twice in 2002 and because we wouldn't have been able to get insurance elsewhere i wouldn't cancel it.

In fact we fell behind two months once and i even paid the arrears because i was i thought it was buildings/contents insurance.

 

I have posted this on another forum and the feedback from one professional is that i haven't got a leg to stand on.

 

Thanks in advance

A more salient point here were you asked if you required insurance or were you told you needed it to get the loan, or was it just added without comment?

Hi,

the main mortgage is now with Paratus, formally GMAC,

 

however this policy was taken out in 2002 and we remortgaged again in 2004/2005.

 

An IFA from another forum said that we wont be able to claim it back because it was taken out pre regulation in 2005.

 

I still want to have a go but i don't know where to start really,

 

apart from phoning the chap himself up and asking him,

 

He's just going to deny miss-selling it anyway!

i'm sure it would have been an advised sale through the broker

i'e he was advising this product was good so must have been trained by them.

 

try him 1st if you wish.
